Holds They Are Taking Advantage ^ of Situation?Says New York i is Blood Sucker. f That it is an outrage to start prices ' . > skidding downward now, after farm ers have Dougnt ineir ieruu^ers, machinery and farm equipment at high } prices, is the opinion of B. Harris, I commissioner of agriculture of South t Carolina, who,.in a statement given out yesterday, pours hot shot generally into the speculators who, he claims, are trying to force farmers to sell I their cotton at ruinous prices. Commissioners Harris' statement, '. - in full, is as follows: "South selling here persistently"? that's what we read in the dis[ / patches telling how the price of cotIk ton is being manipulated. There isn't a word of truth in it. The South is not selling. The only selling that is being done in the South is by the cotton rpills, who are selling futures I to protect themselves. This is ant other of the ni^an efforts at deception. It has worked?as far as putting down the price of futures is concerned, but I don't 'believe the South ? is selling any cotton. Some of the great dry goods houses', they tell us, are cutting prices 50 to 20 per cent. They are jesting with us. What is a miserable little cut like that? Why, a shirt or other garment that cost around $1.50 to $2 > in pre-war times is now selling for $3.50 to $5. What would a little cut of 20 per cent, amount to? The * x?? ?i ^ /IAOIovc oro inanuxitci.uiex& <uiu uwwn^ j~malring handsome promts and are not deserving any praise from the public. Nor should the farmers receive any blame. For they have been getting none of these bi? profits. Take Advantage of Situation. The speculators realize that the farmers must and wish to pay their , i debts and they are trying to force them 'to sell their coton now. It is an outrage to start to "deflating" costs after the poor devil of a farmer has paid all of his costs. He has paid the trusts high prices for ferI* * tilizer, high prices for machinery, high/ prices for this and that* and everything that he has put into the crop?and now that his time to enjoy the fruits of his labor has come, the prices are deflated! Why was this not started immediately after the armist'^e? Why is it being done at ? this late hour? I see that a million and a quarter .bushels of wheat were exported last \ Friday, perhaps the biggest day's ex . por-tation in the history 01 tms country, and yet the price fell 12 1-2 cents a bushel I Was that right? Was it fair by any rules of commerce? ** The same day 65,000 bales of cotton were shipped to England, the greatest one day's exportation in the history of cotton. And yet the price fell a cent a pound and has fallen three cents since then. If cotton were not moving across the water, the bear speculators would say there is no market for it. When it does move, J they put the price down anyway. This crop has cost our farmers 37 to 43 cents. Nearly half of the spindles of the world are in Great Brit^ am and yet the speculators of this country are unpatriotic enough to W w\sh to see foreign spinners get our ' cotton below cost of production and Southern American farmers go upon the rocks of' distress. It is a shams upon the name of fair trading. But the farmers of the South are not expecting fair dealings any more. Upon the island of Manhattan is a gigantic mass or oricK ana mortar | and stone and steel; this thing they call the city of New York. It has r sucked the blood of this country for generations. In all of its area there is not enough produced from the soil ' in the course of a year to satisfy the appetite of a canary bird. Yet, how does this city become great? It is because it feasts upon the rich things -f V* r\ rr>?r\nr rl Kxr f Vl f* fQVmPVs UUg VUll Ui IlllC glUUl iu UJ M1K. of this country. Calls It Graft. They may call it brains, they may i , call it commerce, they may call it anything they wish, but I call it ^ graft. They are blood suckers and nothing else.

The ! quota for the United States this year | as was the case last year, was 64 in' stead of the normal 32, thus making ; up for the postponement of elections ! during the war.

About 400 men were candidates for the 64 appointments, the competition being this year larger than ever before.

Resolutions recently passed by the university ad| mit the men to junior or senior standing with much less difficulty than in the past, while the new degree of Ph. D. has been established largely to meet the needs of American students. Rhodes scholars are chosen in accordance with a threefold requirement in the will of Cecil John Rhode3, whicli comprise character, intellectual | ability and physical vigcr. No written examinations are held, the men being chosen on the basis of their school or college record, supplemented by a personal interview with the committee of selection. The following are tlse men chosen from South Carolina. South Carolina, 1920, Edwin F. Moseley (Wofford college), Laurens, S. C. * South Carolina, 11)21, Josepn ?i. | Norwood (University of South Caro- ' lina), Columbia, S. C. Joseph Norwood is a graduate of the University of South Carolina, class of 1920, where he made an exceptional record both as a student, winning first honor and being a mem- ; ber of the senior honor society, and as a student leader. Norwood was prominent in practically every phase of college activities, the university publications and literary societies, however, attracting the greater part of his attention. During the three years at the institution he served as i i < Ji rn ! president 01 ine v^janusuyim; sutic^v, i editor in chief of The Caroliniar. and j represented the university against the \ Citadel in the 1919 Clemson-Carolina-Citadel debating contest in addition to taking an active interest in the Y. M. C. A. and in athletics. Edwin F. Moseley is a graduate of Wofiord college and was selected as j alternate by the Rhodes trustees last j year. In addition to his record as a student, Moseley was onfe of the con- J spicuous college athletes of his un- J dcrgraduate days. He was several j seasons one of the Methodists' main- j stays in the backfield, and was one | of the few athletes to make the rny-1 thical all-star football eleven. With the sejpcticn of Mr. Norwood | and Mr. Moseley, two of So(ith Caro- j j Una's Rhodes scholars are now from j J Laurens and two of them graduates j of the University of South Carolina, F. P.

Spearman, J. P. Shealy and C. 1 J. Zobel. The services were con- * ducted by Mr. C. A. Freed of Colum- c bia and Dr. J. L. Daniel. Mr. Shockley was 72 years of age. He was a native of Laurens county ^ c but had lived in iNewoerry ior many years, making his home for a long ^ time at Helena, where his brother, the late Irby D. Shockley, also resided with his family at the time, the * two families being next door neigh- ^ bors. A -beautiful trait in the lives r of the two . brothers was their strong * and devoted attachment to each other, and as they had married sisters, who were equally devoted, the C families mere happy in their associa- " tion. After the death of their wives j" the two brothers were inseparable \ and both remained true to the mem- ,c ? ory of the departed mothers of their loving children, who, during the re- A mainder of the lives of their fathers, | repaid them for the tender solicitude shown while the happy children grew to young manhood and womanhood in j ^ right living.
